FRIDAY, MARCH 23. 1956 American Art Gains Maturity, According to Famous Architect American art has reached maturity for the first time in its history, Dr. Maurice Lav anoux, world-renowned architect, said "Wednesday night. However, Dr. Lavanoux said. American artists must not allow their works to become too severe or too strict. He is managing editor of Liturgical Arts, magazine on religious architecture. The illus trated lecture was sponsored jointly by the departments of art and architecture. Violations - (Continued from page one) sion of the committee. The committee unanimously agieed that if the penalties which might be handed out by the group would affect the outqome of the elections—even in orjly one of fice—then the elections returns should be withheld until all ap peals aTe cleared up. The com mittee members said they felt that undue pressure would be put on the appellate bodies if the re sults would be released. The big complaint o! Campus party was the alleged insertion «f •the Book Exchange plank into the Lion party platform and the alleged use of the plank by Lion party ‘candidates in campaigning. Letters Presented 'Snyder presented several letters from fraternity men which sup ported his argument df a viola tion. However, the Elections Com mittee was of the .general opinion that the letters carried little weight since they might have pos sibly been written by parsons who were biased in favor of Campus party. Spadaro’s defense of Lion Party action hinged on the charge that ttfae candidates never presented any 'f-ac-ts and figures—which were contained in the original plank dismissed by Elections prior to the campaign —but merely “explained” to the students why they were not al lowed to use the Book Exchange as a campaign issue. Snyder State* 'Objections Snyder objected en the 'grounds that the majority of the students already knew why the plank had ■been thrown out by reading -ac counts of the action in 'The Daily Collegian. How cv er, Spadaro countered with “How' many stu dents read The Daily Collegian?” He added that the'students found about the issue by reading the Lion party platform, which mere ly explained the issue -and never promised the students any action on the Book Exchange.

Today’s art is simple which makes it difficult to -work with, and this often leads to art which is too severe, he said. Functional Art He emphasized the fact that American art must "live” and at the same time be functional and effective. "The artist must distinguish be tween unbridled self-expression and effective art,” he said. He also warned against artists jbeing too conservative atnd -afraid of experimentation.
